Makerere Suspends Three Students After fees Protests

Makerere University has suspended three students following an early morning strike over the 15 percent tuition increment today.

The trio was suspended for their alleged involvement and participation in disruptive activities and breaching of the University Students Regulations, according to letters signed by Prof. William Bazeyo, the Deputy Vice Chancellor for Finance and Administration, on behalf of the Vice Chancellor Prof. Barnabas Nawangwe.

He instructed the Chief Security Officer Enock Abaine to ensure that the suspended students vacate the university premises immediately.
